Any chance you'll ever install [[ | Any chance you'll ever install [[mw:Extension:Scribunto|the LUA extension]]? It's secure and Wikipedia uses it. The reason why I ask is currently, formatting complicated tables without redundancy is a futile pursuit because of tables' CSS standard, and this strongly deters future table reformatting. Generating tables in LUA would remove all of the redundancy and allow much greater ease in renovating tables.

It adds a full notification system, which allows users to "ping" other users by linking to their username, allowing them to reply in an external discussion without having to notify them on their talk page. This would allow talk page discussions to be rationally confined to one talk page, with users just pinging the other user when they reply, so that following user talk page discussions in the future would be less confusing. But I think this extension falls clearly in the category of "ask your users before implementing", since it would affect the top-UI, and users would additional settings to individually configure if they didn't like the default settings.

== Internal filename template question == | |||
Hey, i was wondering. I made a proposal on [[MarioWiki:Naming]] on how to handle internal filenames, and {{User|Doc von Schmeltwick}} came up with template ideas. Would you approve the use of a template when an article is named after its internal filename? I can show you both of them he came up with. He said that we'd add it only if either the staff approves it, or if my proposal passes. Which one should we use? | |||
<div class="notice-template" style="text-align:justify;background:#F5F5F5;margin:.5em 2%;padding:0 1em;border:1px solid black;color:black"> | |||
The title of this {{#if: {{{section|}}}|section|article}} is official, but it comes from an '''internal file name'''. As such, it potentially reflects an early point in development that may not be the intended name by the final product, may be a developer nickname not intended to be officially used, and may not be in English. If an official name from an English source is found, the {{#if: {{{section|}}}|section|article}} should be {{#if: {{{section|}}}|changed|moved}} to its appropriate title. | |||
</div><nowiki><includeonly>[[Category:Articles with titles from internal file names]]</includeonly></nowiki> | |||
Or should it be setted up like this: | |||
<div class="notice-template" style="text-align:justify;background:#F5F5F5;margin:.5em 2%;padding:0 1em;border:1px solid black;color:black"> | |||
The title of this {{#if: {{{section|}}}|section|article}} is official, but it comes from a '''pre-release source''' or '''internal data'''. As such, it potentially reflects an early point in development or developer nickname that may not be the intended name by the final product, and may not be in English. If an official name from a post-release acceptable English source is found, the {{#if: {{{section|}}}|section|article}} should be {{#if: {{{section|}}}|changed|moved}} to its appropriate title. | |||

:If the proposal passes, I would say just do '''internal data'''. Pre-release source is very vague - that would include any press before the game comes out, unless you intend to include that with this. --{{User:Porplemontage/sig}} 09:11, 22 February 2019 (EST) | |||
::Though, {{User|Doc von Schmeltwick}} told me no matter if the staff approved it or the proposal passed. Can i cancel the proposal and apply it immediately? --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 09:13, 22 February 2019 (EST) | |||
:::I like '''development source''' now. I don't think you should cancel the proposal. --{{User:Porplemontage/sig}} 09:35, 22 February 2019 (EST) | |||
::::That was the point with the pre-release thing (like if "Pucka Jr." was the only name given to [[Fangfish]] by the time of release despite no longer being applicable role-wise), though those situations would probably be fairly rare.

== Appropriate usage of the "(boss)" identifier == | |||
Hi, I have another question regarding identifiers. This time, however, it may be a tad more difficult: When would the "(boss)" identifier be appropriate to use? The reason I ask this is because characters such as [[Boomer (boss)|Boomer]] from ''Super Mario RPG'' (stemming off of [[#Identifier discussion (mostly for characters)|this discussion]]) and [[Phantom (boss)|Phantom]] from ''Mario + Rabbids'' appear to have bigger roles than ''just'' their boss fight (the latter even sings [[Phantom of the Bwahpera|a song]] for Mario and company). {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 12:43, April 9, 2019 (EDT) | |||
:Imagine I said this: The boss identifier is used when a character has a boss battle in a game and doesn't appear outside that game. Would that break a lot of things? --{{User:Porplemontage/sig}} 13:26, April 9, 2019 (EDT) | |||
::I'm not entirely sure, actually. I'm a bit more concerned about the Boomer case, since it overlaps with [[#Identifier discussion (mostly for characters)|this discussion]] and what you said about using species identifiers (there are two other characters named Boomer whose article titles violate the current naming policy, though the page whose subject is the other Boomer character seems to get in the way of this). {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 13:53, April 9, 2019 (EDT) | |||
:::Based on the previous discussion (and [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=MarioWiki:Naming&diff=2493125&oldid=2445836 policy change]) you can move all the Boomers to game identifiers since they are characters. Do you like that? --{{User:Porplemontage/sig}} 14:18, April 9, 2019 (EDT) | |||
::::Yep. I guess we can deal with the Phantom case once another character known as "Phantom" makes their debut. {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 15:44, April 9, 2019 (EDT) | |||

It was agreed upon to manually remove the notes variable so notes-exclusive information could be moved and thus not lost. Information could have been lost due to the bot doing this, such as with [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Toxic_Tower_(Donkey_Kong_Land_2)&diff=2641430&oldid=2614613 Toxic Tower]. Perhaps you could revert the bot's edits? {{User:Doomhiker/sig}} 16:23, April 15, 2019 (EDT) | |||
:Just go [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?limit=500&title=Special%3AContributions&contribs=user&target=Porplemontage&namespace=0&tagfilter=&start=2019-04-15&end=2019-04-15 here] and check all the text replacement diffs that '''aren't''' (-8) to add back any info. --{{User:Porplemontage/sig}} 16:28, April 15, 2019 (EDT) | |||

Thank you for fixing the error for me. I have no idea what was going on with it. {{User:LuigiMaster123/sig}} 00:32, April 17, 2019 (EDT) | |||
::Okay, I just uploaded the gray version of the image, but it got messed up again. I clicked on the image and it looks normal when I go [https://www.mariowiki.com/images/b/b1/PersonaSymbol.svg here]. {{User:LuigiMaster123/sig}} 02:35, April 19, 2019 (EDT) | |||
== Delete template == | |||
Why change from black to white? Maybe I'm just used to how it looked, but a white box with a red outline just seems kinda bland now. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 19:13, April 17, 2019 (EDT) | |||
:Do CTRL+F5 it's the same {{User:Porplemontage/sig}} 19:14, April 17, 2019 (EDT) | |||
::... Oh. Weird. I don't know why it kept the change like that. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 19:16, April 17, 2019 (EDT) | |||
==Rewrite template== | |||
Considering that {{tem|Delete-version}} is fully protected should {{tem|Rewrite}} also be protected? Thanks. {{User:Doomhiker/sig}} 16:29, April 18, 2019 (EDT) | |||
== Text replacement request == | |||
Hey! I just moved Fire Tickle and Thunder Tickle to the names given in the 3DS remake, [[Dash (Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga)]] and [[Tickle]]. You mind using [[Special:ReplaceText]] to fix the numerous links left? Thanks! -{{User:YoshiFlutterJump/sig}} 15:28, April 20, 2019 (EDT) | |||
:Thorn (''Wario Land'' series) was moved to [[Spike (Wario Land series)|Spike (''Wario Land'' series)]] so may you use the bot to fix the links and text? Thanks! {{User:Doomhiker/sig}} 14:03, April 21, 2019 (EDT) | |||
::Before making such a request, please update [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Special%3AWhatLinksHere&target=Thorn+%28Wario+Land+series%29&namespace=10 the nav templates] by hand since they must be re-alphabetized. After doing that and waiting for [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Special%3AWhatLinksHere&target=Thorn+%28Wario+Land+series%29&namespace= the links] to update, you may find that the number of additional replacements needed is relatively small and a bot task isn't required. --{{User:Porplemontage/sig}} 23:21, April 21, 2019 (EDT) | |||

== More text replacement == | |||
Hi, would you mind running the text replacement tool to change every instance of a link of [[Princess Peach's Castle]] to [[Peach's Castle]]? Thanks! {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 14:44, May 6, 2019 (EDT) | |||
